“So, how was your first experience?” Sheila suddenly asks while munching on a burger and sitting on a picnic blanket surrounded by a huge field of grass that knows no ends and darkness.

And right in front of her, the younger girl only chooses to speak after gulping down a small bite of sandwich from her hands, “It’s going great! Ria senpai teach me a lot of things! It’s like studying all over again, though I’m sure I won’t be as excited I was if it’s the actual studies.”

​​

“Also, the slimes were so cute! I can’t believe I have to kill such a cute creature, so I tried to pat it until it jumped and hits me in the stomach. It felt like I was hit by a ball, it hurt but not so much that will make me puke blood. They are truly just monsters with no intelligence.” Yuna looks disappointed that she couldn’t pat the slime. It makes Sheila wonders what kind of reaction it will be if she were to introduce Kuu to her.

“I never know I was good at archery until I draw the bow and hit the core of the slime from afar on my third tries! I could even see clear details from afar so long as I strain my eyes for a bit.”

‘Well, you’re a ranger for a reason.’ Sheila thought inside her mind but didn’t voice it out so that she didn’t ruin the girl’s mood. With a nod, “That’s good to hear. It might take a while for you to adapt to this kind of life but you’ll be fine. If you want to know something that Ria couldn’t answer, just ask me. Otherwise, you can learn almost everything from her.”

“Yes!”

“You’re just leaving everything to me,” Ria muttered with a sigh before shaking her head. Though if she were to leave it to Sheila, it’s bound to be a headache and if left alone, the poor girl might even die due to carelessness. Sheila is an airhead after all. Of course, she won’t make the same mistake twice, but that doesn’t mean there won’t be any mistake at all, it could be from elsewhere. ‘Am I fated to be her caretaker for the rest of my life?’ Ria thought inside her mind.

As usual, leave the matter to the professional when you are incompetent, that’s Sheila’s new motto. Even with her strength that can obliterate a building with a single spell, she can’t handle everything on her own. Especially things that she wasn’t good at. If she was to handle everything by herself, rather than saving the world, it might be destroyed by her instead.

She even fears her own incompetence.

But luckily she got professionals by her side. Lucky…if only that also works for the gacha, Sheila sighed at the thought. Leaning her back on the solid tree, she slowly thoughts about her plan once again.

Firstly, if she wanted to create a guild that will tower everything, there’s a need for a suitable location. She already found one with the help of her mother, Sara. And currently, the building is underway. The same goes for the underground, the Queen is following my order by the teeth to create an underground empire made up of giant ants. She has a way to protect the base above ground so that was why she let the Queen creates a home below the base. She doesn’t want to cut corners on such important work. After all, she’s bound to make many enemies in the near future, the least she could do now is to create a safe base for her family and the others.

Anyway, now that the plan had taken the first step, she can proceed to the next stage.

When creating an organization, what is the most important thing to have? Is it funds?

No, it’s people. Without people, there won’t be an organization. Sure, a small one can be done with a single person. But she’s planning to create a global organization that overlooks the world, and without doubt, requires a lot of hands to make the dream possible.

Without her, the base might as well be naked in front of her enemies. To prepare for such a situation, she needs people to stand by her side and protect the base when she couldn’t be there. And obviously, her family is out. The reason she wanted to create the base was to protect them in the first place.

Fortunately, she got the Trial Tower. Without it, she might have headaches recruiting people with abilities but definitely not impossible order. Even after awakening to such powers, Sheila realized many hidden organizations have long existed even before she was born. And one of them, the Mage Academy where Mia once belonged, are the very people with abilities she will be recruiting in the future. But if she were to face them head-on on her own, it would be considered suicidal, nothing more.

The only way for her to safely recruit people with abilities is by inviting them as normal people first before awakening their ability in the trial tower once they met the requirements. Luke was one of the first few people she had considered. Since she had literally bought his friends back to life with the help of an elixir, he has to pay the price by working for her. It’s a deal after all.

However, currently, she got no time to recruit people. She was still busy grinding for levels to complete the quest. She might be resting now but, most of the time she would spend entirely in the Tower. Everyone was also busy with something, they had no time to help her with anything else. Even Sylvia is currently watching the Mage Academy movement while hidden in the shadow.

‘What a pickle situation. Maybe I should step up the level of my grinding to quicken the pace, which will barren me from the outside world for a while. It doesn’t sound so bad, isn’t like a world-ending event will strike my home while I was away right?’ Sheila jokingly thought before shaking her head. Her thoughts would’ve come true if this is a world of fiction, but there’s no way that is the case, is it? It would be ironic if nothing happens.

For the next few days, Sheila remained entirely in the Tower to grind her level up. Ria would occasionally come to hang out with her during the break, but other than that, Sheila would often be seen fighting a group of monsters without holding anything back. Of course, she wasn’t alone. With a group of giant ants alongside her taming monsters at her call, it all went up with ease.

But when she was only a few levels away from reaching her goal, Ria came for a visit with a serious look on her face for the first time. And what comes along with her was grave news.
